INTRODUCTORY QUESTION
WHAT ARE ELECTROMAGNETIC

WAVES AND HOW ARE THEY
GENERATED?
WILLIAM HERSCHEL
- German Astronomer responsible for the
discovery of Uranus in 1781
- Experimented on different inherent
temperatures of colored light using
sunlight bent through a prism
- Discovered temperature to be highest just
below the red-colored light
- Formerly known as Calorific Rays (or Heat
Rays) and now widely known as INFRARED
JOHANN WILHELM RITTER
- German Chemist who discovered
ultraviolet rays, a hundred years after
infrared
- Noticed that silver chloride was
transformed faster from white to black
when it placed at the dark region of the
Sun’s spectrum (just after violet light)
- Energy-carrying wave also follow wave
phenomena like reflection, refraction,
interference, and diffraction.
JAMES CLERK MAXWELL
- Studied EM Waves for many years
- Described induction of magnetic fields
from changing electric fields
- Demonstrated induction of electric
fields from changing magnetic fields
- Predicted that repetitions of the
inductions create an oscillation.
- These oscillations carry energy in the
form of heat (radiation).
HEINRICH HERTZ
- First detected and generated EM Waves
after Maxwell’s prediction in 1887
- Classified EM Waves as Transverse Waves
- Discovered that 𝐸 and 𝐵 are
perpendicular to one another and
perpendicular to the direction of the
wave’s propagation

RIGHT THUMB RULE

EM WAVE GENERATION
As the electric field produced by
the alternating current (AC) circuit
shifts its direction downward, the
earlier produced fields move
perpendicular the axis where the
fields oscillate. Also perpendicular
to this is the magnetic field
induced by the movement of the
field-carrying charges.
THE SPEED OF LIGHT
In Maxwell’s mathematical prediction, light is an
electromagnetic radiation. Therefore, we can get the speed
of light by using this equation.

Mr. John Kenneth Bugal, LPT
GRADE 10 PHYSICS TEACHERS

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
be able to:
• Explain color and intensity of light in terms of
wave characteristics
• Explain the hierarchy of colors in relation to
the energy of visible light
THE VISIBLE LIGHT REGION
Visible Light is the range of EM radiations that
can be perceived by our eyes.

Which light has the greatest

frequency among the seven
colors in the region?
FREQUENCIES OF VISIBLE LIGHT
Find the value of the
frequency for each color

FREQUENCY AND WAVELENGTH TRENDS
↑𝝀↓𝒇
QUESTION
How do we find the energy

associated with each color of
the visible light region?
ENERGY EQUATION
E = hf
Where:
E – Energy
h – Planck’s constant (6.63 X 10 J s)
-34
f – Frequency of light
ENERGY OF VISIBLE LIGHT
Find the value of the energy
for each color
𝑬 = 𝒉𝒇
CHALLENGE
What is the equation for
visible light energy only
given the wavelength?
𝑬 =?
QUESTION
What is being defined

by the Planck’s
Constant h?
THE BLACKBODY PROBLEM
MAX PLANCK
- Theoretically resolved the classical problems
of blackbody energy emissions
- Calculated for the Planck’s constant h which
spearheaded and revolutionized Quantum
Physics
- Discovered that light’s frequency and energy
are not infinitely directly proportional
- Theorized that light energy can be
quantized through particle-wave identity of
light
ULTRAVIOLET CATASTROPHE
In Newtonian (Classical)
Physics, black bodies are said
to have an infinitely
increasing relationship of its
energy absorbed as the
frequency increase infinitely.
This is called the Ultraviolet
Catastrophe.
QUANTIZED ENERGY
E = nhf
Energy of light can be calculated in multiples of
integer n. An initial evidence that light behaves as a
particle unlike the popular notion that it is solely a
wave (electromagnetic). n = 1, 2, 3, ….
EINSTEIN’S IDEA OF PHOTONS
Through
Photoelectric Effect,
Einstein proved that
light waves can
interact with matter
as particle-like
energy packets
called photons.
QUESTION
Is light a particle or
a wave?
QUESTION
What is the relationship

of the light’s frequency
and energy?
IN SUMMARY
VBGYOR
Is the arrangement of visible light for increasing
wavelength
ROYGBV
Is the arrangement of visible light for increasing
frequency and energy
QUESTION
What is color and how

is light related to our
perception of it?
SEEING COLOR
Light rays travel in straight
lines from the source.
When it hits an opaque

object, some light is
absorbed while the rest is
reflected off.
SEEING COLOR
If the material is transparent,
light rays pass through easily.
If the object is translucent,

some light can pass through
and some are reflected.

WHITE LIGHT
An object’s color appear depending on the color of
light that it reflects.
A white object would reflect all seven colors.

OBJECT’S COLOR
The color an object appears depend on the colors of
light that it reflects.
For example, a red book only reflects red light.

COLOR ADDITION
White light can be split up to
make separate colors. These
colors can be added together
again.
The primary colors of light are

red, blue, and green.

COLOR ADDITION

COLOR ADDITION
A pair of purple trousers would reflect purple light (or
red and blue, as purple is made up of red and blue
light).

COMPLIMENTARY COLORS
There are two combinations of colors that can reflect

white light.
RED and CYAN = WHITE = R + (G + B)

GREEN and MAGENTA = WHITE = G + (R + B)
BLUE and YELLOW = WHITE = B + (G + R)

COLOR SUBTRACTION
The ultimate color appearance of an object is
determined by beginning with a single color or mixture
of colors and identifying which color or colors of light
are subtracted from the original set.
